I'm not mad about it or anything, but I've lost all of my followed tags. I can fix it on my end though, so no worries. :)

Edit: I get taken to the walking monk screen whenever I follow a tag, but when I get back to the front page the tag is followed successfully.

TLDR bug is fixed, fixing the data now.

There was a bug with loading followed tags. It should be fixed now, but anyone who made any user changes since last night will have overridden their tags in the database, so they're still gone.

But the old file data still exists. So I'm writing a script to re-populate the database field from the files now.

Hang in there. It's always a heavy slap in the face dealing with fallout from problems after deploying a new version.

If you need to look at someone who made a change, look at mine. I re-added a tag, got the "Following 1 tag" on my profile. Showing now as Following 0 tags.

Thanks for the work on the backend stuff. As a guy who also works in the shadows behind the scenes, I appreciate you code monkeys!
